What an absolutely wonderful kyrielle sonnet.
I love the flow and rhyme and the two ending lines of combination as yo tell the story of what is forgotten. Nicely done

I've only written two sonnets of this type, Luna, so I am far from being an expert on the form (or any other poetic form for that matter, (LOL). As mI see it, getting the repetitive lines (refrains) to fit in and read smoothly throughout the entirety of the poem is the primary battle you have to overcome. Well that, and getting the meter right, of course.

Your not only does all of those things well, but it tells of a magic that can't be looked upon AS magic if no one decides to look upon it at all.
Kinda' like unpromoted posts here on FanStory.

Hey, my friend, I'm calling you out on the idea that you cannot compose a good form poem! You're the number one poet on this site, for heaven's sake! I bet you could write circles around me.

I'm happy that you enjoyed this poem and your comment about magic not being able to be looked at AS magic ..... was really insightful. A book can't be a great book unless someone reads it,, eh?

Thanks so much for your kind review, my friend.

I'm terrible at sonnets, Jeni, but I can write them. It takes a LOT if effort on my part because to me, sonnets do not read as people actually speak.
Anyhow, you're more than welcome.

Jeni,

My you have been busy. This is really an amazing Krielle sonnet
you have composed. You've got a really strong repeating line and
meter and rhymes are quite divine. Very "magical" to read.

It seems the Queen had great influence and is sorely missed there.
I enjoyed reading creative and well written poem. It's very special.

Linda

This is what I do, Linda. I'm on social security disability, and to keep my mind active during the day, I write poems. I have many poems that I've not posted yet and also many that landed in the circular file!

I'm glad you enjoyed this poem, Linda.

Good evening to ya.

A very well-written Kyrielle Sonnet. I love this style and also have written a few myself.
Your topic draws the reader into a fantasy world of elves, witches, a queen, and magic books.

I love fantasy poems, this is a treat today, the second poem I have read from you and I feel like I am in another place. Love the repeating line, great books of magic sit untouched." You should create a book of your poems.

I enjoyed this, and how it points to the lament of a ribbed life not lived. Well done and great use of magical imagery of books left unread. God surely blesses.
